About Me

Nice to Meet You!

I'm Val Baron

I was lucky to discover photography early on, and fell in love with capturing real moments that make up the human experience.

With a degree in journalism and an obsession with VOGUE, I developed a passion for storytelling, which has shaped my approach over the past 15+ years in wedding photography.

I focus on bringing out my clients’ true selves and somehow also being stealthy as a ninja! (except when my clumsy side comes out for a moment). Known for my blend of professionalism and joyful presence, the genuine smile is my trademark.

Wedding Photography as Timeless as Your Love

Our approach combines candid photojournalism with the elegance of timeless portraits. We document the unscripted moments that make your day uniquely yours, while skillfully capturing editorial-style portraits that serve as lasting timepieces with our unique approach to photography and that something special our clients rave that we bring to their day.

  • “I am so happy with every single photo! The candids, the portraits, the bloopers. They all capture the day so amazingly. I'm in awe! I love that they're not always a perfect pose or shot but they're totally real and you can feel the happiness of the day! You're something else and I couldn't be happier. We love you Val!”

About You

We’ll Make a Perfect Fit If…

  • You Value Authenticity Over Perfection.
You cherish genuine moments and know the best memories come from unscripted interactions. You don’t mind some wind in your hair, a little fall of rain and can laugh when things don’t always go perfectly.


  • You Want To Feel Like Yourself, Above All. Even if you’ve been dreaming of your wedding day your whole life, or you’re eloping on a romantic leap of faith, either way you want to recognize yourself in your photos and love what you see.

  • Your Wedding is About Love.

    
The heart of your celebration lies in the love you share, not in elaborate displays. You want a day that feels true to who you are as a couple, may that be simple or glamorous.
